You need to speak with a fellow Brit, David at Classic Poker Chips!
 
I'm not illiterate I swear. :tdown:

And for people asking most likely a tournament set ,Paulson's are out of my price range for sure so I'm currently looking at some ceramics or China clays.
Paulson's are out of your price range??!!?? ....give it time, that hasn't stopped any of us. I mean it's only money - and we are talking Paulson Poker Chips here!!!

I'm only playing with a few novice friend lol and 400-500 Paulson's isn't just money. It's food for the couple weeks!!:tdown:

I wish I could go back to when I felt this way about $2 Paulsons and talk some sense into myself. Don't think it would have been able to stop the wallet dam from breaking however.

@kenZo , My search for CCs brought me to this place same as you. To be honest, I started with Mr.David Spragg at CPC as well. Get in an order before year's end, before the prices go up. I got a top up order last week for a few Stock Designs Rounders chips for my Tournament set inside of 3 business days. Amazing!!!

Take some extra time before finalizing on CCs. Of course, your budget is your budget but try to get some sampling of all you can. Before I made the decision to buy CPC, I sampled CCs, CPCs, and various Paulson's. It was clear I disliked CCs enough to rethink and later retool my budget and the rest is a blur. I've gotten into many Paulsons.

Welcome to the forum and have alot of fun! There are great deals i see in classifieds from EU that may suit you if you are patient enough.

Thanks for the advice ,seems like I've visited every UK/EU store (and even looked at Chinese wholesale sitesf I'm going to spend upwards of £100 on chips I better get something good) that sells poker chips and it does seem like Spragg has the most to offer but the additional deliver cost knocks even the cheapest clays a little too far.
Also what would 'classified', mean?

Just messing with you. Some great people on here. I’m sure you’ll have some help selecting what best suits you in no time.

Once you reach the required number if posts (10 I think...:tdown:), you'll have access to the forum classifieds where all the degens and chip nuts exchange goods for cash, otherwise known as scrub donkey Boulevard

Not sure if Apache ships to the UK. But the Royals may be just what you need. They are 43mm, and fantastic for the price.

They probably do ,but I came to the conclusion that importing isn't a great idea for me personally ,import fees and delivery fees are lethal.

True. My advice is this...don’t just buy what you can afford. Figure out what you like, and save for it. Doesn’t have to be Paulson or even $1/chip. But something nice they you love. Get samples if you can.

There are plenty of good chips in the UK and Europe. Seek them out.

Happy to help out and be a middle man. Can cut the cost significantly from online retailers.
 
Hello and welcome fellow European chipper.

I’m currently selling a tournament of Nevada Jacks (almost never used).


I can sell a sample of each value of the set if you want to try them before buying a full set.
